OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Scott Kazmir will have to wait at
least one more day to make his debut for the Oakland Athletics and pitch
against his former team.

It's not exactly the kind of doubleheader he had planned.

The game between the A's and Cleveland Indians was
postponed because of rain Tuesday night. It was the first rainout in Oakland
since May 5, 1998.

"I think Kaz brought all the rain with him. You can
blame it on him," said right-hander Corey Kluber, the Indians'
scheduled starter.

The first game between the Indians and Oakland Athletics will be played at 3:35 p.m. The game can be seen on SportsTime Ohio. It can also be heard on WTAM 1100. The second game will start at 9:00 p.m and can be seen on SportsTime Ohio. Along with WTAM 1100 carrying the game on the radio, 100.7 WMMS will air the second game as well.

Kazmir and Kluber will start the opener. Zach McAllister
will take the mound for the Indians in the second game, while A's
manager Bob Melvin said his starter is "to be announced."

The forecast for Wednesday was for a high of 61 degrees and
a 10 percent chance of rain.
